Abstract

Language use strategies in political discourse have a role in shaping public perspectives, especially in crucial moments such as presidential elections. This research aims to analyze the political strategy of language use of Anies and Muhaimin. Therefore, this research is a descriptive qualitative research with critical discourse analysis approach model of Teun A. van Dijk. The main stages of analysis include transcription of oral data, identification of text structure (macro, micro, and supra), analysis of social cognition to reveal ideology and mental representation, and study of social context that reflects power relations. This model is relevant to connect the language structure and domination strategy of the victory announcement in the 2024 presidential election. The data collection method used was orthographic transcription on the video of Anies and Muhaimin's statements on the announcement of the victory of the president and vice president from the KPU. At the data analysis stage, this research uses the political discourse and ideology analysis scheme, Teun A. van Dijk (2002; 2006) and Halliday and Matthiessen (2014). The results showed that Anies and Muhaimin used linguistic strategies to build political legitimacy and closeness to the community. The use of pronomina, declarative mood structure, as well as disclaimer and presumption strategies show that the discourse is ideologically structured in political contestation.

Abstract

Color does not only correspond to light-spectrum-based visual identification of a concrete entity, but it may also symbolize abstract values conceived in a socio-cultural community. Some values are shared, but some others are distinctive. Even in one community, the meaning of a color might be multi-interpretable. For instance, the color of RED is understood as a ‘stop’ command when it comes on traffic light. However, in the compounds such as ‘red specialist’, ‘red herring’, or ‘red army’, we cannot take for granted that the <red> also means ‘stop’. Both linguistic and metalinguistic awareness are required to define what RED means. This paper seeks to describe the literal and non-literal meaning of RED in the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA), by focusing on laws and politic section. By using Keyword(s) in Context (KWIC) method, I have managed to retrieve 328 concordance lines where RED collocates with other token(s). I extracted the lines, including the extended context, for in depth interpretation. Both literal and non-literal meanings of the collocations are categorized into different classes, and the investigation indicates that in laws and politic science text, RED is a color that is often used to address negative polarities such as fallacy and ethnic discrimination.
